Dyfi Enduro 2010
Entries for the 2010 Dyfi Enduro opened today and soon sold out completely. I managed to get an entry in though, rider number 282. Most of the local riders also got a place so it should be a good year.
The course will be similar to last years – Click here to see the Dyfi Enduro Route from last year. It is a 75km off ride ‘challenge’ around the Dyfi forest with around 800 riders. Last year I did it in a time of 4hrs 13 minutes which wasn’t too bad for my first attempt, you can see my Dyfi Enduro Race Report here. I came 222nd but as there were 35 people who finished before me but did the shorter route, I could say I was 187th,
I guess my aim (after finishing it) should be to get around in a quicker time this year.
Did you manage to get a place? What are your aims for this year?

Are you planing to pre ride the dyfi agian this year
Hi Stephen,
Yep, we are on Sunday April 25th. We’ll meet at the usual ClimachX Car Park in Ceinws at 10am. Just turn up there if you want to join us. It’ll take much of the day as we’ll do it at a relaxed pace so bring some food with you.
I’ll be the one with a bright green Commencal Meta 5 driving a white Shogun with a roofbox.

In case you haven’t been reading my other posts on the Dyfi Enduro 2010 which you can see here: https://www.alananna.co.uk/blog/tag/dyfi-enduro-2010/
The course has changed a little from last year. We’ll now be doing a super steep descent called the ‘World Cup Descent’ before the feed station and will be missing out the descent after the feed station that has ‘maimed’ a few people in previous years.
I’ve woken up today with a sore throat, a bunged up nose, headache and I’m aching all over – A full on lurgy so unless I make a miraculous recovery (which I’m still hoping for) I may not be able to ride.

So, how did everyone get on? What times did you do? It sounds as though it was a good day and everyone enjoyed the new course.
